Description

The Diabetes Profile provides a comprehensive assessment of key health indicators crucial for managing and monitoring diabetes. It includes:

1. Blood Sugar Levels:
   • Blood Glucose: Reflects short-term blood sugar levels.
   • HbA1c: Indicates long-term blood sugar control over the past 2–3 months.
     These markers are essential for diagnosing diabetes and prediabetes, as well as assessing how effectively diabetes is being managed.
2. Kidney Function:
   • Tests for urea and creatinine levels help evaluate kidney health.
     Since diabetes can affect kidney function, monitoring these markers helps identify potential complications early.
3. Lipid Profile:
   • Includes measurements of cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL (good cholesterol), LDL-C (bad cholesterol), and the cholesterol risk factor.
     These are critical for understanding cardiovascular health, as diabetes significantly increases the risk of heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes.

By evaluating these essential parameters, the Diabetes Profile supports healthcare providers in tailoring treatment plans, recommending lifestyle modifications, and implementing preventive measures. Regular monitoring is vital for individuals managing diabetes or working to reduce their risk of developing the condition.
